Actually, I make a fairly sudden shift from doing philosophy (trying to make the idea of morality coherent) to doing something more akin to sociology (trying to understand the consequences of adopting various normative systems). The only excuse I can give for this is that I meant what I said in the title: "Notes on..." Maybe in a year or two I can condense this into something less rambling.

No, quite you're correct. My empirical position doesn't guarantee you anything. Still, I like reciprocity, and at heart believe it would be a decent normative standard.
